Contractors on Angi must pay a fee to accept a lead before seeing what the job actually is. When the job is irrelevant, there is no refund mechanism. This pay-before-preview model systematically drains contractor budgets on worthless leads and creates deep distrust of the platform.
Angi reschedules jobs last-minute and uses deceptive AI support agents
Customers booking home services through Angi experience last-minute cancellations without notice, followed by AI support agents that falsely claim to be human. This erodes marketplace trust and leaves customers stranded. The problem reflects poor platform governance rather than a buildable software gap.
